The GFS 12z is very Atlantic dominated despite the blocking to far N/NE though less stormy FI.


Very wet though with some local flooding problems as systems slow down over us.

It still ends up being a very unsettled run but there is plenty of potential for something different going into January. UKMO at 144h shows an Arctic high building nicely

This is a fairly unusual situation. What we have is wierdly enough quite conductive conditions for major blocking - WAA in the arctic, deep high pressure forming over the pole, southern meandering jetstream. Everything else notwithstanding, you would expect these factors to result in major northern blocking down the line. However, and I find this almost funny, someone has thrown a huge spanner in the works - and of course its the canadians (2nd spanner if you count Justin). The mamoth cold pool over E canada is showing no signs of moving fast

At 192, you can see the remarkable -30C 850 isotherm over hudson bay


At 372 we say hello to the -35C 850 isotherm

Which is even further south and east (note on meteociel you will just see a black mess as the colours go off the scale)


The effect of this spine chillingly cold air being blown over the atlantic can only have one result. Massive cyclogenesis, and I'm sure we can blame, at least in part, the canadians for our xmas eve storm, and the one on the 27th too. And until this cold pool buggers off to the NW, we can kiss our chances of any blocking goodbye (bering high or no bering high); what we have to look forward to, instead, are more bombs (a real meterological term for rapidally developing low pressure) and with the cold pool if anything getting stronger, I wouldn't be suprised to see our 925mb storm on xmas eve bested at some point.

The warming on our side of the Pole meanders eastwards at the end but that still looks like a chart with some promise, I think?


The core of the cold PV has clearly weakened and been squeezed towards the Canadian Arctic.

What's fustrating is that by t90, pressure begins to fall over the Med & central Europe


http://modeles.meteociel.fr/modeles/gfs/runs/2013122212/gfsnh-0-90.png?12?12


This continues for another 48 hours, and one would hope the storm that hits us on Friday would follow the ESE trajectory it had been following, and on into Europe,


http://modeles.meteociel.fr/modeles/gfs/runs/2013122212/gfsnh-0-108.png?12


Yet it halts over the UK, fills a bit, then scoots NE'wards. Meanwhile, pressure rises over central Europe/the Med, slamming the door on the possibility of the blocking that's building way to our north being able to influence us.

But cold zonality is really the best on offer.

I'm cautiously optimistic with the likes of this in FI.

http://www.wetterzentrale.de/pics/Rtavn3602.png 

Allowing for the usual delays, I think by mid January we could see a decent wintry spell. With the very cold air over N America and the very deep lows in the Atlantic it just feels like an extremely cold air mass could come our way before winter is out.

But maybe that's because I've just had a couple of glasses of the old vino collapso...

The next LP is actually coming east not south-east - and the track in this se-up often spins them NE and then north as they start to fill.
